remediation test Applications

InfraCal TOG/TPH Analyzers allow for TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons) in soil testing at remediation sites such as leaking
underground storage tanks and produced water evaporation ponds. Site managers can avoid having costly soil remediation equipment
sit idle while waiting for off-site lab results. Sampling requires a few
simple steps that can be performed by non-technical personnel. The soil is mixed with the extraction solvent, shaken, filtered, and
then presented to the InfraCal Analyzer for measurement. Features include:
- Results in under 15 minutes, including extraction
¨ Detect levels as low as 10 ppm
¨ Portable, rugged, lightweight, easy-to-use
¨ Battery operable
¨ Ideal for field or laboratory applications
¨ Factory calibration available

The OVT container is an innovative product and a highly effective tool for the preliminary testing of media/soils that have been impacted by a wide variety of volatile organic contaminants of concern (COC’s).
• No preparation or modification needed prior to use in field
• Air tight OVT lid has built in sealed sampling ports of varying sizes to accommodate different size OVA probes.
• Lids snap together so all samples from one well/boring can be easily grouped together.
• Reduced potential for injury to employees due to non-breakable material, lighter carrying weight and no sharp cutting edges as on aluminum foil boxes or use of razor knives;
• Lid is recyclable & container is made from an environmentally friendly biodegradable material (corn-based) ;
• Disposable container reduces potential for cross-contamination of samples (creating invalid data) due to washing and reusing mason jars from multiple sites;
• The OVT cell can be purchased on-line and shipped directly to your office or obtained at a local equipment rental location.
• Granted a USPTO patent and accepted by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection-BPSS as an Innovative Technology.

Analytical precision is essential, whether remediation is to abide by regulatory provisions or for development projects. With specific standards in place for each region and situation, Maxxam has developed comprehensive test packages for soil, groundwater, sediments, surface water and soil vapour to meet provincial regulations and/or Canada-wide Standards as set out by the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment.

Sitelab's UVF-3100D is used to test soil to help investigate and clean up sites contaminated by above ground or underground storage tanks (USTs). Soils can be analyzed for extended diesel range organics (EDRO) or extractable petroleum hydrocarbons (EPH). Results correlate well to confirmatory lab methods.

We can help you achieve site closure and enable the sale or redevelopment of your site in a predictable timeframe with highly reliable results. This is made possible by: Our broad array of thermal remediation technologies, each tailored to the site-specific conditions and contaminants; Tested and proven field operations, processes, and teams; Expertise in designing projects to ensure outcomes without the need for further remediation; and, Our ability to assure a shorter project cycle and verification that goals are achieved by sampling before we shut down or demobilize.

Compliance screening and testing is often carried out during the manufacturing phase of a product, and all the way through its disposal or recycling process. It ensures that products and materials meet specific standards or comply with international and local directives or regulations. These standards and regulations are introduced to ensure the quality and safety of a product, and to minimise or eliminate its negative impact on the environment and people. Examples of products or materials tested are: electrical and electronic equipment (for compliance with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive), waste oils, soil (soil remediation depending on contents of toxic metals), children’s products (for compliance with Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008), etc.

Previous land uses or accidental spills can result in Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) contamination of soils. Volatile and semi-volatile compounds can then permeate through the soil and may persist for several years. This contamination can be traced and measured using our Soil Probes in conjunction with our VOC sorbent tubes. Soil probes are also useful in checking the effectiveness of remediation actions. This monitoring technique provides a cost-effective identification of hazardous gases.
